ANd it was going so nicely!

I’m enjoying tatting Renulek’s Wiosna 2025. The first few rounds are full of interesting techniques. Each round looks nice on its own and plays nice with the next round added. Brilliant!

If only my tatting were brilliant……


I missed a picot and 6 DS in a chain. If this were an outer round, I might live with it. If I had an abundance of this thread, I’d just snip and begin again. As it is, I’m picking it up each day and un-tatting 3 elements. I’ll be finished in time to take it with me this weekend on a short trip.

Incidentally, the thread doesn’t appear this tan in real life. It has a bit of a khaki green hue to it in lamp light and sunlight shows a different combination to my eyes. Of course, I’ve learned the hard way not to trust my eyes. I’m always asking other people what they think of color combinations I come up with. I’ve also learned that when I come up with a combination that looks “different” to my eyes, I need to combine it with other colors for a more pleasing look. What color should I combine with this????
